Hood Release Cable Kit

The LOKAR Hood Release Cable Kit (SKU LOKHR-1100U) is a precision-engineered cable assembly designed for classic and custom automotive builds that demand reliable under-hood access without factory clutter. This cut-to-fit cable system allows builders and restorers to integrate a clean, mechanical hood release mechanism into vehicles where original or modern release systems don't suit the aesthetic or functional requirements. Whether you're constructing a hot rod, restoring a vintage vehicle, or customizing a street machine, this hood release cable provides the mechanical simplicity and visual appeal that separates factory builds from true custom work.

Constructed with durable black polyurethane housing and aluminum components in a brushed finish, the Hood Release Cable Kit combines corrosion resistance with a refined appearance that complements modern and vintage automotive aesthetics. The polyurethane jacket protects the inner cable from dirt, moisture, and UV exposure while maintaining flexibility for routing through tight engine compartment spaces. The brushed aluminum fittings provide a tactile, premium feel and resist oxidation in harsh under-hood environments. As a cut-to-fit design, this kit accommodates various hood lengths and release mounting points, giving fabricators full control over cable routing and final installation geometry without compromise.

This cable assembly suits hot rod builders, restoration specialists, and custom automotive fabricators who prioritize mechanical reliability and visual cohesion in engine bay design. Installation requires basic hand tools and mechanical aptitude—the kit ships uncut, allowing you to trim the cable to your exact hood-to-firewall distance and custom release lever location. The brushed aluminum finish integrates seamlessly with high-end custom builds, vintage restorations, and modern muscle car projects alike. Verify your hood length and release mounting location before cutting to ensure a precise fit; LOKAR's proven engineering ensures smooth, cable-actuated hood release with the durability expected in daily-driven and show-quality vehicles.
